The Tip That Hurts.

“Some day,” said a man who was giving off that peculiar odor which advertises only the barber shop—“some day I hope to meet somebody who can tell me why the tip to the broom boy aggravates me worse than any tip I part with and why I never have the courage of my convictions in connection with it I suppose it’s because I feel that after I’ve paid 25 cents for a hair cut and 15 cents for a shave and have been wheedled into a shampoo I didn’t want I’ve spent enough. Hundreds of times I’ve promised myself that I would not be .whisked at the barber’s, and hundreds of times I’ve found myself being whisked, while I spun round slowly like a lay figure on a revolving disk. There are some things in this world I can do for myself and want to do. I can reach for my hat without knocking anything off the mantelpiece In the next room, and I can put on my overcoat and light my cigar and brush my clothes and open a door. Now and then I can close a door, too, and that’s an accomplishment Whatever there Is about It I begrudge that broom boy tip more than I do the contribution I put on the plate for foreign missions, knowing, as I do, that some of our home missions are starving to death.**—Providence Journal.

Take the end of the paper in the left hand and strike It rapidly and forcibly with the right. Give a sudden pull and you have the paper In your hand, white the coin stands In the position It did before. It would seem as If the coin must fall, but try It, and'with a little practice you will be able to accomplish-the trick.

EMPLOYERS CALL FOR PROTECTION

Chicago's Mayor Responds with a Very Large Increase of the Police Force. ANOTHER INJUNCTION ISSUED Express Companies Call on the United States Court for Help. DAY OF RIOT; MUCH BLOOD SHED Another Issue tn the Fight—Transfer Companies Told They Must < Fish or Cut Bait, and Get Down Off the Fence. Chicago, April 3. —An injunction based on the interstate commerce act has been issued by Judge Kohlsaat on the application of the express companies. It enjoins all strikers or others from interfering in any way with the transaction of business by the said express companies. This was probably the most important happening in strike circles in the city. Of excitement there was an abundance, and of rioting an ample sufficiency. In view of this latter fact, amf'the utter inability of the police to protect the “struck’’ firms in their right to conduct their business the mayor authorized Chief O’Neill to demand from the civil senice commission 1,000 men police for duty during the strike; to call in all police for strike duty, leaving only the desk sergeants and lockup-keepers for duty at the stations. Demands of the Employers' Teaming Co. The Employers’ Teaming company has 2,000 teams manned with drivers, and demands that these teams be protected in their right to traverse the streets, and this will require a large number of policemen. The Employers’ Teaming company is tired of making up caravans, and demands that its wagons, singly or otherwise shall have the same freedom of the streets as the most insignificant team whose driver wears a union button. The mayor’s proclamation, issued last Saturday was posted everywhere, and of this the mayor said: “To one thing I desire to direct public attention—that is the duty of the disinterested citizen to go along about his business. There will be no trouble tomorrow morning if the public heeds my procla ma tion.” Carry Says He Will Shoot. A notable feature of anti-strike operations is the presence of Frank Curry, the “strike-breaker,” in the thick of the fray. He was a mark for many a missile, and whenever he saw where it came from he sent a bullet in return. ‘Til shoot at any one who hits me while in the performance of my work,” said Curry. Lewis Eiseman, George Clark (colored) and James Harvey, three of Curry’s strike-breakers, who were with him on an expedition after some missing wagon, were badly injured by flying missiles. EMPLOYERS TACKLE TRANSFER MEN flay They Should Either Fish or Cat Balt ia Thia Row—The Reply. Five transfer and teaming compa nies, ssi id to do the greater part of the railway freight hauling in Chicago, are holding firm positions on the fence in this fight They will not send their teams to “struck” houses unless the union will permit. They will start the loads, but if the pickets stop the drivers the latter have orders to drive back to the barns. These transfer companies were informed by the Employers’ association they must either deliver freight to the boycotted stores or lose a large part of their business. To deliver goods as demanded would cause a strike of the drivers. The five teaming companies are: Arthur Dixon Transfer company. Joseph Stockton company, W. P. Rend Transportation company, Christopher M. Lynch and Stephen T. Clarke. These companies have contracts with “struck” Arms, but are practically refusing to deliver goods as called for in the contracts, because if they did there would be a strike of their teamsters. This did uot worry the employers, who said it is up,to the transfer companies whether they will keep their contracts or have them canceled, and never renewed. The Employers’ Teaming company was ready to help the transfer men if a strike was the result of keeping their contracts; the employers themselves said that if the transfer men failed them now they would never have another chance to be a factor in such a fight. It was twenty-four hours before the transfer men replied to the demand of the Employers. These transfer companies belong to the Team Owners’ association, and through that association they flatly refused to make deliveries to any of the firms now Involved In the strike. When the Employers received this ultimatum they notified the team owners that in case there was any discrimination made In deliveries an effort would be made to have all existing contracts between the team owners and the business houses and the railroads canceled. This they failed to do so far as the railways are concerned. The railway men are getting all the hauling done they want, and see no need to enter the fight. The employers, however, will cancel all their contracts with the Team Owners, and this amounts to millions of dollars annual-

ly. The Commission Team Owners’ and the Lake Transportation Team Owners’ associations have also taken a similar stand as the Chicago Team Owners’ association. DAT WAS A BLOODY ONE ■triken Stop Caitouqen from “Struck** Stores—Rough Work Everywhere. The death of one man and the injury of scores of others was tite immediate result of the day's fighting between the striking teamsters and their sympathizers on the one side and the police and the non-union men on the other. There were riots in all parts of the city. Men were clubbed and stoned almost to death within a square of police headquarters, and five miles away men were shot down in the streets. At a hundred places between these two extremes of distance there were assaults and fights in the streets. Blood was shed on State street in the heart of the fashionable shopping district, and furious riots took place almost in the doorways of the leading hotels. Non-union men were pelted with ■tones, bricks, and every other conceivable sort of missile. They were dragged from their wagons, beaten, clubbed add stamped upon. In many Instances men walking along the streets who had no active connection whatever with the strike were assaulted, beaten first and later accused of being strike breakers. A notable instance of this kind wns that of Rev. W. K. Wheeler, pastor of the Ninth Presbyterian church, who, while passing the corner of Desplaines and Adams street on his way to the Pennsylvania station was attacked by three men, who knocked him down and beat him unmercifully. Another proceeding of the strikers was to stop customers leaving the “struck” stores and Interfere with them because they had •'boycotted” goods in their arms. In mauy instances those stopped were ladies and the dty authorities are determined to stop this. As far as known but one man was killed during the day. The list of injured is much greater than that which it Is possible obtain. In many cases the non-union men swung their clubs with great effect, knocking men from their wagons headlong into the street; in other instances, when assailed by mobs, they fired point blank into the crowds, and it is difficult to see how the members of the mob could escape many broken beads or how any bullets fired during the day should have gone wild. The death list has one more name —that of Sergeant Richard Cummings, who was in charge of a police squad guarding a number of wagons Thursday, when he was knocked down in Washington street near Dearborn by the horses attached to a ’bus. The ’bus was trying to pass a blockade of teams caused by sympathetic union drivers who were not on strike. DIFFERENCE OF OPINION Mayor and Employers Do Not Agree oa Military Aid. Chicago, May 4. —The utter failure of the Chicago police to secure freedom of the streets for the business of the firms boycotted by the striking teamsters has moved the center of interest outside of actual violence, to Springfield. Although at this writing there seems to have been no request made to the governor for troops, it seems certain that the request will be made. Rioting in the streets was so prolonged and of so fierce a character that many of the leading business men declare there will be neither peace in the city nor safety for its business interests until the state militia has been called out to restore order. Chief of Police O’Neill says he is confident that he has control of the situation, and can keep peace in the city. Mayor Dunne supports him in this view ami has declared that in his opinion the emergency has not arisen requiring the presence of troops. On the other hand the business men point to the long list of injured which marked the rioting of Tuesday and the greater number of those who were hurt yesterday, and declare that this alone Is sufficient proof that the police are not unaided sufficiently strong to cope with the stiuation.. Mayor Dunne was emphatic in bis declaration that he will not acquiesce In any call for outside assistance in preserving order. He said It would be disgraceful to ask for troops until Chicago had exhausted her resources, and said he could call on. every able-bodied man In town to help keep the peate. He declared he would, however, in this ease not call on either the strikers or the strike-breakers or their sympathizers. The mobs that filled the streets In the business section yesterday were larger and uglier In disposition than Tuesday. There was fighting In all sections of the down-town district throughout the day and over a dozMi times the police were compelled to use their clubs. There wns a number of instances where mobs boarded street cars and wantonly attacked people riding in them, giving as a “reason” later that those assailed were strike-break-ers, when In fact they had nothing whatever to do with the trouble. T. C. Carlson, employed by Montgomery Ward & Co., was struck in the head by a brick thrown from the window of the strikers’ headquarters. The case will probably be murder, but no arrest was made. Thirty-one names are on the day’s casualty list, and this is not half of those hurt.

Storm Stope the Hunting.

Glenwood Springs, Colo., May 3. — A storm raged all night at Camp Roosevelt. The muddy roads made a hunt Impossible an£ delayed the moving the camp back to the East Divide creek as well as Secretary Loeb's departure for this city.

NOT SO BLOODY IS ANTICIPATED

Russian Authorities Looked for Formidable Uprising in Poland. MORE DETAILS OF SLAUGHTER Over One Hundred Person* Were Killed or Received Serious injuries. 1 Stories of Revolting Cruelty Praoticed by the Cossacks and Other Troops—General Strike Is Proclaimed. Warsaw, May 3.—The committee of the social Democratic party of Poland and Lithuania has issued a manifesto proclaiming a general strike and calling out all the workmen immediately In consequence of Monday’s bloodshed. St, Petersburg May 3.—Bad as was the rioting at Warsaw, Lode, Kalisz and other places in Poland, and venomous as was the hostility everywhere displayed against the police and the Russian authorities, the uprising was far less formidable and the results less bloody than anticipated. The authorities had given due warning of their intention to permit no demonstrations and the troops quelled the disturbances ruthlessly. Demonstrators Were Few. All reports, however, indicate that the demonstrators were comparatively few in number, the vast bulk of the population fearing trouble remained In doors. Where trouble occurred the crowds were armed with bombs and revolvers. In Warsaw a red flag procession was dispersed by two volleys, Cossacks and Ulhans then charging and cutting down the people in the streets, driving them into courtyards and beating them with sabers and. whips in the cruel fashion peculiar to these wild horsemen of the steppes. About a hundred persons were killed or seriously wounded, according to the reports, women and even children sharing the fate of the men. At Lodz workmen attacked the police with bombs and were charged by dragoons and uhlans, who cut off the bomb throwers, drove them into a house, surrounded it and then fired upon those inside, killing three persons and wounding many. Cruelty of the Cossacks. Supplementary reports of the rioting just received confirm the earlier Warsaw advices of the revolting cruelty of the Cossacks aud other troops. People were driven into courtyards and beaten with the butts of rifles, some of them Into insensibility. The limbfl of some of the victims were broken. The bomb thrown Into a Cossack patrol near the Vienna station, Warsaw, struck the head of a Cossack’s horse, literally blowing the horse and rider to atoms and killing two other Cossacks and two women. In Kombakoff street hussars fired two volleys Into the crowd. At Lodz a woman who was looking out of a window was shot by a Cossack. While practically there were no disturbances in the Jewish cities on the Polish border of southwestern Russia, dispatches say that the people are in a state of panic. The streets are filled with moving patrols. SITUATION AT WARSAW Probability of Further Conflicts Is Causing Much Apprehension. Warsaw. Russian Poland. May 3. The city is apparently outwardly quiet, but the situation is none the less grave. Workmen are going from factory to factory compelling their comrades to strike and the probability of further conflicts arouses the keenest apprehension. The iMxiies of the thirty odd persons killed by the troops on Zelazna street are still lying in the morgue awaiting identification. Ten of the wounded who were taken to hospitals died of their wounds. During the encounter on Jerusalem street the troops not only fired a volley but used the butts of their rifles and their bayonets and swords. Many women and children had their bends and limbs broken. Some of the injuries were of a terrible nature and there were cases where the soldiers entered the courtyards of houses and attacked those biding there. When the troops fired after the bomb was thrown near the Vienna railroad station four persons were killed and seven were wounded. All the windows In the neighborhood were shattered. There was an explosion in the police station of Minsk, following which a crowd fired on a detachment of Cossacks. The latter replied and order was soon restored. The strikers at Lodz now number 75,000. At Kalisz, during a service In a church the congregation began singing patriotic songs, whereupon soldiers and police entered the building and attacked the people, wounding many of them. A free fight ensued, during which weapons wrested from the police, shots were exchanged and stonefl were thrown. A dragoon, a woman and a man were killed inside the church. A squadron of cavalry waa summoned and dispersed the crowds. The church was closed to* reconsecration.
